Fat loss in the cheeks tends to occur as people age but it can also be caused by other medical issues. Losing weight due to diet or a medical problem, can cause the face to lose fat. An evaluation by a doctor would be needed to try and determine the cause of your facial fat loss. If there is no treatable medical condition causing the problem, there are a few treatment options. Injectable fillers or surgically placed implants can help in appropriate patients.
Volume and contouring of the cheeks can be created with well-placed fillers (Voluma, Radiesse, Bellafill, Contour) and Sculptra. Implants or fat are alternatives.

I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer
